“The manual was very well designed, I thought it was just the right balance of information and reflection. I really enjoyed meeting the other members of the course, as a one-to-one in zoom break out groups and as a group in plenary. Also the practices were restorative, lovely and thought-provoking. I would definitely recommend the course to other people.”
Rachel in Redditch, participant on the Foundation Course.
“I really enjoyed the MYUK Foundation Course, I found the manual very good, simple to understand and follow and very informative and helpful. For me, I still had some concerns about explaining the concept of Christian Yoga to those who are very against the idea, so I found the history and background to its development very interesting, I had no idea about the early pioneers like Bede Griffiths! This inspired me to go and do some more research of my own. Also the YouTube video “Christian Yoga – Do or Taboo” was so helpful in that respect. It has given me confidence to articulate what I know from my own experience.
I enjoyed the style and pace of the MYUK Foundation Course modules 1 and 2 online with Pauline Steenbergen. It felt relaxed and unhurried with space to talk, reflect and listen.
I enjoyed the challenge of teaching my version of the Lord’s Prayer Yoga sequence.
I really enjoyed my day, it was special and it has reinforced my enthusiasm and sense of calling to keep going deeper into this yoga journey as I approach my formal YMCA yoga teacher training this year.”
Jo in Bolton, Participant on the course.
